Chaeyoung

"Let's ask each other some questions each step."

I told him, smiling. I want to do that not just because I'm nosy. I want to do that because I think it would make our date less dull and I'm also hoping it would lift his spirits even just a little.

"That's corny." He chuckled.

"Come on!"

"Let's just go up straight." He said that made my smile slowly disappear. "That's way faster than that idea of yours." He chuckled.

I looked away from him and started going up the stairs quietly.

What a killjoy...

"Hey, wait." I heard him say and I can feel him following me.

"Fine, let's do that." He said which made me stop. I turned around to look at him.

"Are you sure?"

"Well.." he shrugged. "Yes."

I sneered a bit before signaling him to come closer. He obliged immediately and faced me as soon as he went beside me.

"What am I going to do?"

I huffed. "I'll go first." I told him instead since I don't feel like explaining.

I stepped onto the next step and glanced at him over my shoulder.

"Are you okay?" I asked softly.

I was just looking ahead of me while waiting for him to answer but when almost a minute has passed, I turned around slightly to look at him, only to find him staring at me.

I frowned a bit and just stared back at him. But after a few seconds, he broke the eye contact.

"I'm fine.."

I nodded a bit, unconvinced, and signaled him to step up.

"It's your turn."

"On a scale of one to ten.." he said that caught my full attention. I raised my brow a bit and the corner of my mouth raised when I saw a small smirk forming on his lips.

"How handsome do you think I am?"

Wow. Is he for real?

"Are you seriously asking me that?"

He looked at me with amusement dancing in his eyes.

"I'm afraid it's not your turn yet, Chaeyoung-ssi." He said that made me roll my eyes a bit.

"Uhm.." My face started to heat. "6?"

"That sounds like a question."

I cleared my throat a bit. "7, then."

He laughed. "Just seven?"

I looked him in his eyes bravely. "I'm afraid it's my turn now, Sehun-ssi."
